DVS-PersZert

Partner in the personnel qualification of specialists and managers in the fields of joining, cutting and coating

Like any other product and any other service, personnel qualification must also satisfy certain quality criteria. This in relation not only to the contents to be imparted but also to the way in which these contents are imparted. Additional important factors are the equipment of the educational facilities with regard to space and appliance technology as well as the qualifications of the trainers. Only when personnel qualification is based on high quality standards does the customer have the guarantee of also receiving an adquate service for his money.
